Log Message:
lint: add more details to message about pointer alignment

The previous message 'may cause alignment problem' was not detailed
enough to be actionable, it didn't give the necessary insight to why
lint was complaining at all.

The new message 'increases alignment from 1 to 4' or 'from 2 to 8'
describes the potentially problematic conversion, and together with the
involved type names, it allows an informed decision about whether lint's
warning is warranted or not.

In a typical NetBSD build, this warning is in the top 10.  The number of
these warnings depends on the architecture, it is typically between 800
and 1600.
